As Sewerage & Water Board crews work to repair a broken water line on Cohn Street Wednesday, several residents in the Carrollton neighborhood reported little or no water pressure for most of the day.

S&WB spokesman Robert Jackson said the water pressure problems were directly related to the repair work and should be resolved quickly.

"I would say (properties) just in the immediate area may be experiencing low water pressure and that should be resolved in the next 40 minutes," he said shortly before 6 p.m. Wednesday.

Jackson said the S&WB had received complaints from residents on Sycamore and Panola streets, as well as Neron Place.

The rupture occurred early Tuesday morning in the 7800 block of Cohn Street, sending about two feet of running water gushing onto Burdette, Fern and other nearby streets. As the water board evaluated the damage, it enacted a 26-hour boil water advisory for those Uptown neighborhoods serviced by that pipe which began at noon Tuesday and lifted shortly before 2 p.m. Wednesday.

S&WB officials said Cohn Street should be fully repaired by the end next week.
